Well, its been another little while since my last post but with good reason; I’ve been away. In fact a fair way away to be exact, ‘up’ north. A long way north from down here in Somerset: Scotland. Where not only did I discover it really is a stunningly beautiful place but they also make rain there too. Lots of rain. Oh now, it wasn’t all a complete washout by any means and the locations I visited far outweighed any overcast or threatening weather I had. In fact I was very lucky in many respects as when the winds really kicked up at night a few times I was of course huddled up safely in front of a video. I spent a week in two different locations, one on the Ardnamurchan Peninsular on the westcoast and a second in the breathtaking (on several levels) Cairngorm mountains. I will of course over the next few posts publish the images from the trip, not a great deal on account of the weather but happy with the results of what I have. So, don’t go too far and watch this space!

On the cards is more travel over the next few weeks/months; a trip to Hong Kong followed by Venice…hoping to ‘blog as I go, especially in the techoramaland that HK is!

On the subject of this ‘blog I have updated things around the website in general, as you may well have noticed. The look and feel has been refreshed with extra functionality added to the gallery section, tinkered ‘under the hood’ a bit and hopefully it works everywhere for everyone(!), any probs let me know.

I intend to begin creating a series of photography tutorials to be made available on the website and as download-able pdf’s covering particular topics such as what to consider when shooting in certian situations, I don’t expect to delve too far into basic camera operation as it will be assumed you are already competent with it’s workings.

New business cards arrived today!! They are nice and thick and weighty, I believe around 400gsm for those in the know. A big thanks to goodprint.co.uk for these, the quality far outstrips that of my previous ones, and will certainly leave the impression of quality I intend as befits the time and effort I put into my photos [not to mention the expected quality of the work itself!]. It’s very important to leave a good impression with prospective customers. It certainly pays for them to take away a good quality business card with your contact details, perhaps brief summary of your skills too so they know what you’re capable of. As to the design, I made it fit my website’s new look – with a space left for scribbling notes, as some people like to do…

In all, very cool. The down side? They’re so new I’ve not handed any out yet!!!
